I believe I understand the perspectives, but I'm unconvinced that there isn't asymmetry. It's one person's job.

Like, I'll whine all day about my job. But I'm under no illusions that I didn't sign up for it, and I'm extremely cognizant that while it's a bummer that I have to do my job, I understand that the people I support are having a worse day than I am. I'm not doing anyone a favour, I'm doing my job.
